Developer Unknown Worlds recently issued a statement defending the recent controversial leadership changes in its studio, while stressing that this will not change the game itself.

Just a few days ago, Krafton (the parent company of Unknown Worlds) confirmed that Deep Sea Trek creator Ted Gill, Charlie Cleveland and Max McGuire, all left the studio.The three core leaders will be replaced by Steve Papoutsis, CEO of Striking Distance Studios, who has also been appointed CEO of Unknown Worlds.

Such a sudden leadership change has sparked concerns among Deep Sea Trek fans about the future direction of the game, some of whom fear the game will be filled with microtransactions or combat passes.Unknown Worlds issued a statement to alleviate some of the concerns.

“Our commitment to the open development philosophy and our commitment to working with the community in the early access phase to create Deep Sea Trek 2 has not changed. We believe in the importance of listening to players and have received valuable feedback from hundreds of community members who participated in the early testing of the game.” - Unknown Worlds

The statement, published on the official Unknown Worlds website, mentions all questions and concerns about leadership changes.The statement first pointed out that the core values ​​of exploration and discovery in "Deep Sea Trek 2" are still adhered to, and the entire team supports Papoutsis, and he himself is "supporting" the vision of "Deep Sea Trek 2".

Unknown Worlds also defended the change, saying that despite the departure of the three founders, the team that has been working on the game for the past few years has remained "completely unchanged."The developer said it was “extremely proud” of the story being built and that Krafton “strongly supported” the vision.

The statement ended with concerns about how Deep Sea Trek 2 will change and confirmed that the game’s structure is “nothing” different."Deep Sea Trek 2" will remain "single-player experience as the core", without a subscription system, no unboxing system, and no combat pass.
